Jesse finds himself at an existential crossroads during a chance encounter with Carla (Bush), an old flame, as their complicated past and current troubles threaten to destroy their blissful reunion. Hard Luck Love Song captures a fractured optimism where characters navigate the choppy waters of life, searching for their ‘own kind of American Dream.’”

“At its core, I see this as a modern-day love story wrapped in a gritty, compelling character study,” said Corsbie. “Some of my favorite films deftly follow that formula and I’m humbly trying to celebrate those classics through my story in a contemporary and timely way. I feel fortunate to have received such strong interest in the project so far and I’m excited about telling this story and getting Hard Luck Love Song out there.”
